For starters:

exten => 8863959,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN},60,r)
exten => 8863959,2,NoOp(${DIALSTATUS})
exten => 8863959,3,Voicemail,u${EXTEN}@Customers
exten => 8863959,104,Voicemail,b${EXTEN}@Customers
exten => 8863959,105,hangup

Now replace the specific numbers with a generic pattern of the sort of:

exten => _XXXXXXX,1,Dial(SIP/${EXTEN},60,r)
exten => _XXXXXXX,2,NoOp(${DIALSTATUS})
exten => _XXXXXXX,3,Voicemail,u${EXTEN}@Customers
exten => _XXXXXXX,104,Voicemail,b${EXTEN}@Customers
exten => _XXXXXXX,105,hangup

Now, I don't know much about your system, so the above may, or may not
work. But it should give you some ideas.
